37 weeks pregnant with yet another uti and on antibiotics. having pain in my left lower back/hip shooting into buttocks... kidney pain vs sciatica?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either: Without an exam it is difficult to answer. It could be either kidney or sciatica. Better safe than sorry. Follow up with your doctor. If pain gets worse or develop fever then go to ER. In meantime, drink a lot of fluids. Look online for stetches for sciatic pain or piriformis.
